nested Attributes through

Question

I have 3 models:

class Day < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :goal
  has_many :day_salesmen, dependent: :destroy
  has_many :salesmen, through: :day_salesmen
  validates_presence_of :date_day, :goal_id

  accepts_nested_attributes_for :day_salesmen
end

class DaySalesman < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :day
  belongs_to :salesman

  accepts_nested_attributes_for :salesman

end

class Salesman < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :company
  has_many :goal_salesmen, dependent: :destroy
  has_many :goals, through: :goal_salesmen

  has_many :day_salesmen, dependent: :destroy
  has_many :days, through: :day_salesmen

end

In my application I have a goal, this goal belongs to a company and has start and end date, when it is created automatically values are created in the day table that go between the start date and end date set in the goal, this field has the name of date_day.

In addition to this field each Day has a value field, which is the total amount collected during the day, this value is not automatically set when the user creates a goal, that is to say it comes null, it is necessary to edit the Day to define how much was collected that day. When I’m editing the day I’d like to add an employee to my Salesman model, that employee would be tied to that Day.

I managed through the Day edit form to add an employee, but that’s it, the edition of the day value is not updated and also I have no increment of the Daysalesman tables.

Below are my controllers and the result of my controllers:

class DaysController < ApplicationController
  before_action :find_day, only: [:show, :edit, :update]
  before_action :find_company, only: [:show, :edit]

  def index
    @day = current_owner.companies.find(params[:company_id]).goal.find(params[:goal_id]).days
  end

  def show
  end

  def edit
    @dayup = Day.new
    @day_salesmen = @dayup.day_salesmen.build
    @salesman = @day_salesmen.build_salesman
  end

  def update
    if @day.update(params_day)
      flash[:notice] = "Day updated!"
      redirect_to company_salesman_path(:id => @day.id)
    else
      flash.now[:error] = "Could not update day!"
      render :edit
    end
  end

  private

  def find_company
    @company = Company.find(params[:company_id])
  end

  def find_day
    @day = Day.find(params[:id])
  end

  def params_day
    params.require(:day).permit(:value, day_salesman_attributes: [:id, salesman_attributes:[:id, :name]]).merge(goal_id: params[:goal_id])
  end
end

Salesman:

class SalesmenController < ApplicationController
  before_action :find_salesman, only: [:edit, :update, :destroy]

  def index
    @salesmen = current_owner.companies.find(params[:company_id]).salesman
    @company = Company.find(params[:company_id])
  end


  def create
    @salesman = Salesman.new(params_salesman)
    if @salesman.save
      flash[:notice] = "Salesman saved!"
    else
      flash.now[:error] = "Cannot create salesman!"
      render :new
    end
  end

  def update
    if @salesman.update(params_salesman)
      flash[:notice] = "salesman updated!"
    else
      flash.now[:error] = "Could not update salesman!"
      render :edit
    end
  end

  def destroy
    @salesman.destroy
  end

  private

  def find_salesman
    @salesman = Salesman.find(params[:id])
  end

  def params_salesman
    params.require(:day).require(:salesman).permit(:name, :id).merge(company_id: params[:company_id])
  end
end

My Edit view of the day controller is:

<%= render "shared/sidebar2" %>
<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col s10 offset-s2">
      <div class="row">
        <h4>Edit day</h4>
        <%= form_for(@dayup, url: company_salesmen_path) do |f| %>
        <%= f.label :value_of_day %>
        <%= f.number_field :value %>
        <%= f.fields_for :day_salesman do |ff| %>
        <%= f.fields_for :salesman do |fff| %>
        <%= fff.label :names_of_salesmen %>
        <%= fff.text_field :name %>
        <% end %>
        <% end %>
        <%= f.submit "Create" %>
        <% end %>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

My log when I click on the Submit button in this view is:

I wanted to know how through this form of Edit of the day I can update the value related to the day, create a new employee and associate it to that day through the Daysalesmen table.
